SHERBERT: Brought to You by the Coney Island Shortcakes Crew

When we stopped by to get a shortcake at Coney Island recently and to see Dan Weise and Kalene Rivers at their stand in front of Cha Cha's, we also scored a copy of the new issue of SHERBERT, the excellent literary, art and photography magazine that they produce. Issue 6, the "Personal Space" issue, has been out for a couple of weeks. It clocks in at 64 pages and comes with a hand printed, hand numbered cover. The limited press run is 1,000 copies. The mag comes with a 6" wooden ruler to determine Social Distance, a mix CD from Nobot media, a design it yourself postcard from Smiling Disease. One of the treats about going to Coney Island this year has been getting a great strawberry shortcakes and spending some time talking with Dan and Kalene, but we don't want you to get the idea that they're just about shortcake. They are both graphic designers who are behind Thundercut and are the editors of SHERBERT. Stop by and say hello, get a shortcakes and, even better, get a copy of the magazine, which is produced with love, right here in Brooklyn.
